If amanda was a wave

Shocked Dude, that's a fantastic title. Shocked ROTFL

I'm tickled to see that BABY ELEPANT WALK is being played.
That song is a gass to do~!

I do a surf version of SKATERS WALTZ. You should hear that.
Another good song I love doing is WHEELS by the Stringalongs.

Yeah, Baby Elephant Walk is a fun song, people seem to like it

I've been working on a surfy version of "Java" too. Laughing

I got to meet the reclusive Jimmy Torres ("Wheels", "Sugar-shack") a few years ago. I had donated my drum kit for a concert at Willamette High School where Nokie Edwards and Jimmy Torres played. After the show I got to go backstage and meet Nokie and Jimmy, and Nokie autographed one of my drum heads for me. Jimmy had a pretty new red Strat that I commented on, and he said "Yeah, Fender gave it to me". So I said "jeez, what do I have to do to get Fender to give me a guitar?", and he said "write a hit song..." So I said "I've got one right here in my pocket!" and he kind of rolled his eyes and grinned. Nice feller. Nokie had been ill and wasn't feeling too well so I didn't bug him. I did give his wife my demo tape though. Laughing

well, that is truly a great story.

I'm pleased to hear that so many GREAT songs are still getting played.
I worked up Java several times..only to play it in the living room by my lonesome.

I just HAVE to hear 'Saturday Night on Mars' live in person, if it's the last thing I do.

Yeah, that is a nice one! My favorite verb tonic.

Wow....and I thought I was the last person in existence with a Stringalongs LP.

p.s. I don't have a Stringalongs Lp either... chuckle

Great List - I did a quick count and I've got 12 of those songs in my daily use MP3 player right now (out of 83 total songs).

Interestingly enough the last Punk band I had was called Nova X... eerie coincidences..? Or something more..?

CUTBACK

Is that "Hocus Pocus" by Focus?

Forgot to put "Sesame Street" on my list.

YES. It's a mix between the Gary Hoey version and the original by Focus. No yodeling - all parts done by gitar. It's a crowd pleaser.

CUTBACK

For starters, I imagine they're grateful there's no yodelling. Smile

...or a Hawaiian chant! Laughing

CUTBACK

I always thought a surf version of Hocus Pocus would be good.
can you put a mp3 of it up please?

BTD-
We don't have it recorded. I could probably put up the Gary Hoey version.
His is more hard driving than ours, but we did model it after his take on it. We do one stanza of wipeout in the middle of Hocus Pocus. It's a hoot and very unexpected.

CUTBACK

Surfgitar,
thanks but no thanks, I have heard the Gary Hoey Version and was not impressed.
My dad has the LP Moving Waves by Focus, and used to play the hell out of it back in the 70's. When we got an import version of it at my work I got it for him for his B-day, he was so happy. thew it on and cranked it up.
we stood there in the front room rocking out.

Wow, these lengthy lists make me realize that I need to learn more songs start to finish. I've got a really bad habit of jumping on one song, getting vaguely proficient with that one (or maybe just learning most of it) and then moving on to another, and repeat. Where can I buy a longer attention span?
As for my list of personally penned songs, here it is:

The one in Gm
The one in Am
The one in Dm
The one in Cm

Those are all complete, but somehow my imagination has run dry in coming up with names for them. Confused
